Here is what our team thinks are the biggest opportunities in construction today:\r\n\r\n

Sustainable construction<\/h3>\r\nAlthough the sustainability codes are getting stricter, the construction industry remains largely reliant on unsustainable materials and methods. Sustainable practices will need to become mandatory for each part of the construction process.\r\nSuggested by Mirco<\/a>, Roberto<\/a>, Federico<\/a>\r\n\r\n

Energy efficiency<\/h3>\r\nThe increasingly expensive energy is being joined with the requirement for as small a footprint as possible. This makes way for innovative solutions that can save energy and reduce the use of unsustainable materials.\r\nSuggested by Mirco<\/a>, Roberto<\/a>\r\n\r\n

Infrastructure resilience<\/h3>\r\nWith climate events increasing each year, it is getting difficult to adapt new developments to the old city infrastructure. Instead of gravel and concrete, we need sustainable stormwater solutions, designed with environmental challenges in mind. \r\nSuggested by Mirco<\/a>\r\n\r\n

Productivity<\/h3>\r\nDemographic growth imposes the need for reduced construction times. Investing in good planning, research, and solutions that allow streamlining and standardization makes construction overall faster and less expensive.\r\nSuggested by Mirco<\/a>, Roberto<\/a>\r\n\r\n

Lack of space<\/h3> \r\nConstant traffic congestion in urban areas makes organizing construction sites more and more complicated. We need solutions that can function in limited spaces, difficult to approach by heavy machinery and large vehicles.\r\nSuggested by Mirco<\/a>, Roberto<\/a>\r\n\r\n

Future-proofing<\/h3>\r\nSustainable construction implies keeping the entire lifespan of the building in mind. A building needs to withstand many years of use, adapt to future climate and demographic trends, and be recycled after demolition.\r\nSuggested by Mirco<\/a>, Roberto<\/a>, Paolo<\/a>\r\n\r\n

Digitalization<\/h3>\r\nConstruction needs a software update. BIM and VR models are needed for the entire building process, from initial designs to the construction phase, in order to check if everything was made according to plan.\r\nSuggested by Federico<\/a>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nLet us help you to seize these opportunities.<\/a><\/font>\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
